Chappell Roan had to lay down the law during her performance at Outside Lands Sunday (Aug. 11), lightly scolding a section of VIP fans who apparently thought they were too cool for school when it came time to do the “Hot to Go!” dance.

At her live shows, the 26-year-old singer-songwriter typically teaches her increasingly large crowds how to do a corresponding “YMCA”-esque dance before diving into the fan-favorite Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess track. At the San Francisco festival, she spotted a group of people in the VIP section who weren’t following along, so she called them out in front of everyone during the opening notes of the song.

“It’s so weird that VIP thinks they’re so way too cool to do this!” she said before yelling: “You’re not fun! Be fun and try!”

Performing the “Hot to Go!” dance with Roan is always a rite of passage at her live shows, but this time, it was even sweeter — the track, which reached a new peak of No. 26 on the Billboard Hot 100 dated Aug. 3, celebrated its one-year anniversary on the day of the festival. To commemorate the occasion, the Missouri native sported the same blue military leotard she wears in the “Hot to Go!” music video, which finds her teaching the moves to her grandparents as well as fans and drag queens in her home state.

Roan’s crowd at Outside Lands was one of the festival’s biggest, with Allen Scott — president of concerts and festivals for Another Planet Entertainment, which produces Outside Lands — estimating that 50,000 people flocked to her set, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. It comes shortly after she took the stage at Lollapalooza, drawing another enormous audience that a spokesperson told CNN was the biggest daytime performance turnout the Chicago event has ever seen.
